Thermal/Mechanical Reference Design
Refer to the Dual-Core Intel
®
Xeon
®
Processor 5100 Series Datasheet or Section 2.2.8
for the Thermal Profile A and Thermal Profile B specifications. Section 2.4 of this
document also provides details on the 2U+ and 1U Intel reference thermal solutions
that are designed to meet the Dual-Core Intel Xeon Processor 5160
Thermal Profile A
and Thermal Profile B respectively.
2.2.8 Performance Targets
The Thermal Profile specifications for these processors are published in the Dual-Core
Intel
®
Xeon
®
Processor 5100 Series Datasheet. These Thermal Profile specifications
are shown as a reference in the subsequent discussions.
Note: The thermal specifications shown in this graph are for reference only. Refer to the
Dual-Core Intel
®
Xeon
®
Processor 5100 Series Datasheet for the Thermal Profile
specifications. In case of conflict, the data information in the datasheet supersedes any
data in this figure.
